Police say 32-year-old Shaun Fairman wasn't allowed to own a gun because his wife had obtained a protection-from-abuse order against him before he bought the .30-06 rifle from Byler on June 2.

Police say that weapon was found at the scene, but wasn't fired when Fairman allegedly shot 55-year-old Richard Shotts during a dispute between Fairman and his estranged wife, who was Shotts' daughter.

Police say Byler told them he sometimes sells guns through his horse harness and shoe shop, mostly to help Amish people who can't buy guns elsewhere because they don't carry photo identification.
